Men. I don't know.
I don't know if you normally eat Tofutti "ice cream" or Rice Dream or anything like that, but now's the time to stock up. For the rest of the day, they usually recommend eating ice cream - the cold is soothing and helps with the bleeding. You might also have some tea bags on hand - soaking a tea bag in cold water and using it as a compress helps if it seems like it's bleeding for a long time.
